What is everyone sick of hearing since they started MFP or their diets? I have a few...

You didn't have 20lb to lose...
Clearly I did, cos I lost it!!

You don't want to get too thin...
Having a healthy BMI is not too thin

Men like a little meat to play with...
Sorry, I'm no ones play thing...plus I'm married!

Yeah, well MY (sister,aunty,cousin,friend,brother etc) lost 4 stone doing the (atkins, southwest, slimming world, WW etc) diet...
It's not a competition

Are you still on your "diet" thing......
It's a lifestyle change. So yeah!

Are you even allowed that piece of cake? I thought you were on a diet....
I'm a big girl, I'm allowed whatever I want. I'll enjoy it too! Just in moderation!!

    From my mother, every time she sees me, whether I have lost or gained weight, "You look great! You have lost sooo much weight!" (Her mental image of me must be huuuge!)

    From a 430 lb. colleague, while inhaling* big bags of M&Ms and almonds, "You should eat more nuts! They are great for your health!" (*shudder*)

    *literally, he would eat them by inhaling and vacuuming them up from his hand into his mouth

    You need to eat more! Which means you cannot possibly be only eating XXXX calories to lose weight.. But I am short, old and fairly sedentary beside exercise.

    Clearly I should cause I am not losing on what I am eating.

    You can cheat a couple times a week, it won't make that much difference. Ugh, yes it will hinder all of my hard work thus far!!

    *in surprised voice* You've lost weight. My thought *Really - I had not noticed *

    Does it take long to make your salad every day - No it is just preparing lunch
    *Whilst eating their normal daily sandwich* Does eating a salad a day not get boring - hmm no it is different every day, your sandwich is not
    You must have spend ages in the gym for loosing so much weight - well not after I lost most of the weight - Just eating less was most of it.
    Go on you can have *insert crappy sugarbomb* you have lost so much weight - *rolls eyes*
    Stop loosing weight you are disappearing - No I'll stop when I am good an ready and that is not yet
    Logging food - soo boring can't work, what food group are you not eating - well it did
    You should cut out *insert fad food of the moment* *rolls eyes*

    And when I do have a scheduled snack - OH can you have that on your diet.

    Heard them all and gettign rather fed up with it all

    Lol. Talk about an age gap. That's actually a sir mix a lot reference samples by nicki.

    Exactly what I was thinking, though in a way, Nicki brought it back, which was nice of her ;-)

    Everyone else still know all the words by heart from the original, but can't remember where their keys are half the time? Ahhhh brain, you tricky minx!

    "Are you losing more weight?!" (Actually, I'm toning up now, but thanks for noticing...)

    "You eat chocolate?!" (Every *kitten*ing day, *kitten*...)

    "You look great...I really need to get on My Fitness Pal...what's the website again?"

    "Oh, I could NEVER lose weight like that"....um yes you can.

    ^^^This!! And the "Oh, you just find it easier cos you have a higher metabolism..." cos no I don't, I just work my butt off at this. As if all my hard work is nothing more than a bunch of DNA or something. I literally sweat my butt off, but apparently it was "easy"

    You should lose weight with cardio first before lifting weights.

    This. So this, it makes me grit my teeth every time.

    Or "You don't need to lose weight". I know it's intended as a kindness but really, I do.

    I am fed up of my husband telling me he thinks that I look fine/sexy/ just the way I am (currently size 24 and 58 1/2 inch hips, I've lost 1/2 inch in 18 days). While I love the fact that he thinks I look great, I do not.
    I need to lose 6 stone and I need to lose it as quickly as possible. I have a deadline of June 2017.

    It's just one day
    One cookie won't kill you
    You don't need to lose more weight

    +1 on the lifting thing. I hate it.
